Pope Francis and Argentina's Military Dictatorship

  1. I would like to know what the new Pope's involvement was in Argentina's Dirty War/Military Dictatorship.
  2. Go and read about the new Pope is.gd/d4cjng lying in trials for human rights violations during the dictatorship
  3. Jesuits criticized the new pope for his behavior during the 1976-1983 dictatorship in Argentina thkpr.gs/ZAeSBW
  4. New Pope spotlights questions about the Church’s relationship with military dictatorship thkpr.gs/YaepJx
  5. I speak of the Pope with "hate"? how about the lost lives of 30,000 disappeared, tortured, killed? Those did not deserve better?
  6. Seriously guys, 'if he did in fact do it', he was part of the hierarchy during the dictatorship. They are *ALL* guilty and I am not about...
  7. Correction. This time it's Pope "Police State Executioner".... RT @jonathonblakele: Pope Nonce is elected
  8. Several Latin American friends not rejoicing: Pope Francis apparently conservative Jesuit; did not speak out against Argentina dictatorship.
  9. this is not a guy who remained silent during the dictatorship, he was an ACTIVE participant in it
  10. Those who asked what he could have done during the dictatorship? HOW ABOUT NOT HANDING PRIESTS THAT GOT TORTURED AND KILLED?
  11. How about not allowing the priests that reported to him to give sacraments to prisoners during torture?
  12. how about not hiding political prisoners in his own summer house?
  13. Please tell me this wasn't the "New Pope" giving Communion to Argentine Dictator/Butcher Jorge Rafael Videla. http://pic.twitter.com/chCzvWDlZZ
  14. @Rev_Xavier Not only as medieval as his predecessors: the new Pope collaborated with Videla's dictatorship, murders and child disappearances
  15. 'and the new pope is... a fascist and "complicit in the worst crimes of the Argentine dictatorship". Well done Catholic Church'
  16. @der_bluthund as I said earlier, we went from a Pope complicit with Nazis in WW2 to a 70s dictatorship. They are *almost* catching up
  17. Erick Erickson: classy Fox News "journalist" that considers it a positive trait that the Pope was complicit in a dictatorship
  18. @redlightvoices I called Erick Erickson human garbage, and now my mentions are full of ppl telling me how awful I am. *shrug*
